Quotation analysis: 


Hurst wrote, "I did not know then that pride is a wonderful, terrible thing, a seed that bears two vines, life and death."  


 How do both authors (Hurst and Steinbeck) use this quote to springboard his concept of "pride" throughout the story?  (If you look closely, you will see that the authors refers to pride several times in each of their works (Hurst directly and Steinbeck indirectly).  


**To answer this question, you must locate the original quote listed above.  Next, find several references of "Pride" in both stories.  Why do the authors continuously refer to pride throughout their stories?  What does pride mean to the authors/ the characters?

Explain the quote using examples from the stories.  Both stories have many similarities.
